5.  Care  and  Maintenance
5.1
General  cleaning
Minor  cleaning  should  be  performed  using  a  damp  microfiber  cloth.  Detergents  or  chemicals  should  not  be  used.
5.2   Washing  Cygnus  with  a  High  Pressure  Cleaner  or  Hosepipe
When  cleaning  Cygnus  with  a  high  pressure  cleaner  or  hosepipe,  always  follow  the  opera ng  instruc ons  for  the  equip-­‐
ment.  Ensure  that  the  stream  of  water  is  always  directed  downwards  at  an  angle  of  no  more  than  60°.  This  is  to  prevent  
unwanted  water  ingress  to  the  unit  via  the  airflow  vents  which  could  cause  electrical  failure.  If  you  believe  that  water  
has  entered  the  unit,  under  no  circumstances  should  the  unit  be  powered  on.  Contact  the  manufacturer  before  use.
The  control  panel  should  only  be  cleaned  with  a  damp  microfiber  cloth.  
Ensure  that  the  system  is  switched  off  before  cleaning.
Under  no  circumstances  should  the  control  panel  be  cleaned  using  a  pressure  washer  or  hosepipe.  
Detergents  must  not  be  used.  
Under  no  circumstances  should  the  unit  be  used  to  power  any  cleaning  equipment  being  used  to  clean  
the  unit.
5.3  -  Paintwork  Repair
Minor  damage  to  the  paint  such  as  scratches  or  stone  chips  should  be  touched  up  without  delay  before  the  metal  starts  
to  corrode.  Suitable  touch  up  brushes  or  sprays  for  Cygnus  can  be  obtained  from  the  manufacturer.
5.4  -  Tes ng
It  is  recommend  that  the  unit  should  be  tested  annually  for  safety  by  a  qualified  electrician.
Local  regula ons  may  require  more  frequent  tes ng.  Please  refer  to  local  regula ons  for  further  details.
If  Cygnus  does  not  pass  the  relevant  tests,  do  not  use  or  open  the  unit.  It  must  only  be  opened  by  a  qualified  service  
engineer.
It  is  recommended  that  a  full  service  is  performed  every  two  years  in  order  to  ascertain  the  condi on  of  your  system.  
Please  contact  the  manufacturer  for  further  informa on.
Opening  the  unit  may  cause  electrocu on
Opening  the  unit  will  invalidate  the  warranty
5.5
Caring  for  the  Ba ery  Bank
Cygnus  uses  sealed,  maintenance  free  ba eries.  The  only  rou ne  care  necessary  is  to  ensure  that  when  not  in  use,  the  
unit  is  charged  at  least  once  a  month  to  keep  the  ba ery  bank  topped  up.  
Leaving  the  ba eries  in  a  state  of  discharge  for  extended    periods  will  seriously  affect  their  perfor-­‐
mance.
